My husband needed some new work pants, mostly for knocking around in garage/yard/woods messing with cars and motorcycles, firewood, etc. He keeps messing up his jeans and wanted Dickies brand because his buddy had some. They are very nice pants for the price here on Amazon, where his buddy bought them, a brick and mortar store, they cost about $10 more. It's not a true boot leg, but the leg is really designed to be worn with work boots because they kind of cover running shoes, almost drag the heel. I would say if anything, the leg is just a tad long, my husband has to fold the cuff when he wears running shoes, but they fit over ankle high boots great. They have a cool little pocket (It's not really secret, but I needed a hook to get you to read) on the right leg, it's supposed to be for a cell phone, but I found when doing laundry you can put screws and washers and pliers and a screwdriver, with room to spare (the pocket has little Dickies brand label/patch so everybody can see you wear Dickies and thus are COOL). At least I found the screws, etc. before going in the wash. Speaking of the wash, they are REALLY stiff when you get them. After we made sure they fit well, I washed them in cold on two long agitation cycles with a soak inbetween, they softened up a little bit and didn't shrink any or lose color. After about 5 or 6 wear and wash cycles they hold color and wash up well in cold with other darks. They are totally broken in now, they don't get as soft as camo fatigues because the material is thicker/heavier to give an idea of material thickness/heaviness if you know real Army type fatigues. You just need to hang them up out of the dryer for no wrinkles, you don't have to iron them, unless you want a crease for some reason. He has had them over a month, wears them on the weekend/ after work knocking around, but they could be everyday professional work pants as well. They are much better than the pants you get from a uniform service at a job, at least the ones I have dealt with, worn at past jobs. Double knee, thick material all over, solid construction and seams, big belt loops that keep the belt situated right at the waist (really nice touch for guys that don't have 6 packs, if you know what I mean). Hubby liked the wide belt loops, When he showed me, I got 2 thumbs up on those! These have become his new BLACK jeans (cool, tough, 63 year old, LOL), he likes them so much I ordered a second pair for him. I could easy see paying up to $40 for pants of this quality, TRUE work pants for less than $30 (they sell for more at other stores), SUPER PRICE-SUPER QUALITY, buy them for your husband and maybe he will be SUPER too....Or not...But his pants will still look good. 5 STARS

From the manufacturer
On The Job Since 1922
A century ago, we were just a small Texas company making bib overalls. Built with quality, grit, and quiet pride, every pair that came out of our shop embodied the spirit of the American worker. While our workwear is now available in more than 100 countries across the world, we’re not all that different from when we first opened our doors. We still make bib overalls. We still embody that spirit of the American worker. The only difference is we get to do what we do for more hardworking people than ever before.
